CT Osteoabsorptiometry Assessment of Subchondral Bone Density Predicts Intervertebral Implant Subsidence in a Human ACDF Cadaver Model.

This study achieved its stated aim of validating the use of CT-OAM as a method to analyze the sBMD of the cervical endplates. Studies such as this are providing new information on available technology such as CT-OAM, providing new tools for clinicians treating spinal conditions in need of augmentation and stabilization via interbody devices.
